Right now I'm using Sony MDR-V6s w/ Beyerdynamic cushions; I really like them but I'm looking to upgrade to something a little better; preferably under or around $100 with more bass than the V6s. I use the headphones for mostly music and some gaming.
Initially I was thinking of going with the MDR-7506s but may not see a big difference. I've also listened to HD-280 Pro, though only for gaming, and do not like the bass(kind of bass-heavy for me); Explosions drown out other sounds which also makes it harder to pinpoint where sounds are coming from; the soundstage seems smaller too but I couldn't really tell with the bass; I can borrow a set and listen to music with them if you guys think that may be a good upgrade.
I've heard good things from Audio Technica and their AD700s are highly regarded in the gaming community; but I'm not a hardcore gamer. Would the M50s but a good upgrade or is there a better alternative?
Thanks, Kevin
